Arguably, Blender may be the only tool that can enable a single artist to produce a work like that of this week's winner!

How, then, can you too qualify for this award? Please have in mind that this award is reserved for those that are on par with or that excel top-notch works published by artists and studios. If such work does not appear during a given week, this award is not being given to anyone. So please submit your best work to www.blenderartist.org or to the Member's Gallery of this site, or Contact Us to show where your work is available on the internet. It doesn't have to be a Blender render, internal or Cycles. Any other render engine is fine as long as Blender was used as a part of your workflow.
So, it is with great pleasure that www.BlenderNews.org introduces to you the winner of the Render of the Week Award for the week of September 28, 2020: Julien Herbey.

Artist's Comment
About Me: 
I am a self-taught 3D artisan passionate about history, 3D and cinema. I’m a generalist with a predilection for animation and storytelling. I chose to use Blender because it allows me
to do everything from modeling to final rendering. I am mostly working with vehicles stuff like plane, ship, automotive rendering, but I also do VFX for historical documentary and
environments.
 
About "WW2 DOGFIGHT - Blender CGI Animation:"
A new short 3D animation of Second World War Soviet fighter aircraft.
This film tells the story of the «Normandy Niemen» regiment, an air squadron of the French Air Force that fought Nazi Germany during the Second World War on the Eastern Front from 1942 to 1945. I was learning and getting myself up to date for the new 2.83 version of Blender and decided to create a 3D CGI animation of this fighter squadron.
